As a mom who sneaks in a few chapters during naptime or post-bedtime silence, this book was the perfect spicy escape I didn’t know I needed!
📖 What Is Twisted Hate About?
Twisted Hate is the third book in Ana Huang’s Twisted series. While each book can be read as a standalone, you’ll enjoy it more if you’re familiar with the recurring characters. This book follows the fiery dynamic between Jules Ambrose, a fiercely independent law student, and Josh Chen, a charming doctor with a sarcastic streak. These two can’t stand each other—but when forced proximity and undeniable chemistry come into play, things get messy, hot, and surprisingly emotional.
❤️ Why I Loved It
As someone who juggles motherhood, blogging, and self-care, I crave books that offer emotional payoff and juicy storylines. Twisted Hate delivers both. The banter between Jules and Josh had me laughing, and their slow-burning romance was perfectly paced. It wasn’t just about the steam (though, wow, there’s plenty of that! 🔥)—it was also about healing, personal growth, and learning to love someone beyond your first impression.
🔥 Spicy Rating: 5/5
Let’s talk spice! This book is very much 18+, so if you enjoy steamy romance with strong characters and tension-filled interactions, this one’s for you. Ana Huang doesn’t hold back when it comes to detailing those intimate moments, making this book a favorite for fans of passionate storytelling.
💬 Quotes That Stuck With Me
- “You’re infuriating, but you make me feel alive.”
- “Sometimes, love isn’t soft. Sometimes it’s sharp edges and bruised egos—but it’s still love.”
These lines show how the book balances heat with heart, something I deeply appreciate as a reader.
💡 Final Thoughts
